One gray hair on your head is probably just a fluke and nothing to worry about. Graying hair can be genetic. My grandmother's hair was almost entirely gray when she graduated high school. I would say if you find a few more than ask you doctor but if its only one its no big deal and probably a lot of people have one random gray hair.

There are many people who have grey hair at a young age (a hair here or there) and even skin problems. But, a doctor can diagnose the problem especially the one that you are having with your skin. It may be nothing, but seeing a doctor, in my opinion, is the best way to be certain and ease your concerns.

Hair does not turn grey, it actually turns white, and that is why the single strand is colorless or white. It only looks grey because it is contrasted with the other colored hairs - it is an optical illusion in a sense. It is probably just an anomaly, I wouldn't worry too much about it.
